half centuries it had excavated chan.

The Pioneers Of 40.

A Philbrook, Montana, correspond
emit writes: The "Old-ti timer" the
Forty niner!" A flood of rccollections
enter my mind, both kindly and anus
ing, rs dwell on the many various
specimens of this kind that l have met
with during my sojourn in the west
There are three distinct classes. The
"old-timers," who have made a success
in life. and there are large number OF
these, liberal-hearted men. who are pill
lars of strength in the territories. But
il is in the other two classes in which
you find the fund of anecdote and inter-
esting characteristics which make the
"old-timer" the pilgrims hero. 1t is
those who have made and lost the for
tunes which were so easily got in the
"palmy-days, and those who have
never made any great stake, but always
''just missed it,"
The first of these last two classes are
the men who suffered all the hardships
of the trip from Omaha to California,
and in the go S went TO Idaho and Mon
tana, undergoing almost marvellous eX-
periences, escapes from tho Indians,
from starvation, and from cold; which
put into plain words in this day of pal
ace coaches across the continent raises
suspicious that the imagination of the
narrator is getting the best of him.
But the old saying that "truth is stran-
ger than fiction" was never truer than
in this case. Most of them lost their
fortunes by recklessness, thinking
what was made so easily could be
made again. The most of these
men. therefore, possess those quail
tiles which redeem them from the
vulgar poverty of their present condi-
ton. The habits of years leave their
trace, and they will to-day divide their
last meal. with the stranger that comes
to the cabin door, and feel insulted if
payment is offered But how bitter
must his feelings be when he finds the
country settling up with large numbers
of people from the States" 10 whom
he is but a tramp, and he finds himself
slowly vending his way to the poor
/ house. What n fall-from being the

and fit subject for the county com.
missoners' care. We who know treat
him all the more kindly, and to us he
unburdens his soul.
In the third class are found the witty
story-tellers, the men who spin the
yarns so taking to the youthful ear.
There are many smart, brainy men,
who. through some fatal lack in their
moral or mental make up, have never
been any thing but rovers. And, hay
ing vast fund of general information
and actual experiences to draw upon.
and with vivid Imagination, can
weave fact and fancy into stories that
will hold the audience of open mouthed
"tenderfeet' spellbound.
But they are going, and very soon q
genuine, 'old-timer' will be a thing OF
the past. They have filled noble
place in the history of the United
States, and the present generation owes
much to the few who risked all that
the many could follow.

A few minutes past o'clock last night
young man, rather well dressed, nearly
six feet TALL and Of proportionate build,
might have been seen rushing down Adams

and went triangularly across the street.
The first place he might have been seen to

There it was learned that the unfortunate
fellow was crazy, and that his name was
Simon Jacob Silverman, tailor, about
twcnty-four years old. From the
disconnected story which he told, the
following facts were cleaned: lie was q
tailor, from Chicago several months ago
and was employed at Frcibcrg's, who
keeps small tailor shop at No. lis Main
street. Silyerman was very much in love
with the daughter OF Freiberg, and claims
that she loved him in return. Together
they had beseeched the relentless father

and his appeals were scorned
by his employer. The girl was
loyal TO her lover. But in order 10 get rid
OF him, as the father thought, lac dis
charged him the latter part OF last week.
Since then Silverman has done nothing
but wander aimle,ssly around the city, max

love, but all attempts have proven inef-
fcctual. Without work, money or friends
he grew desperate, in fact crazy, and thus
sought relief from his trouble. lie will be
